Shuttle SpecificationsPlastic shuttles prepared at the workshop to aid weaving of thicker yarns and fabric strips in the weft. The yarn/fabricstrips have to be wound around the shuttle to make a figure of eight. This helps winding <strong>more</strong> lengths of yarn/fabricstrips onto the shuttle at one go.Ski shuttles used for rug making can be an option in the future for easier and faster weaving as suggested by Docey
